LOL I just roll behind the screen and tell them what I wanted to see.

or for kicks and giggles, I roll, and without blinking, or looking down at the dice stare them in the eye and say "Your stupid idea didn't work."

Tents come to mind. I remember reading one thing on the shadowrun archive about some player trying to use the auto-reeling from his grapple gun like the one from Batman and go flying up. Well the GM made it go up for a while, break and nearly kill the character. So then the player goes and tries to do it again, and the the character breaks his neck.

see, that's why you gotta talk to the GM.

say, hey, can I put like 5X the cost into one, so it can do this one specific feat i'm going for?

as opposed to just trying to d oit on the fly.

If you can tell me how to put enough power in a little handheld grappling gun to winch a 200+ lbs str 6 and body 6 human, sure. But I really doubt that such a thing is really possible.

Anything is possible. it may just not be cost effective.

you could use a series of nanites to wind it up nice and neat. you'd probibly have to feed it batteries or something to keep it charged, but it's certanly possible.

not quite the 'batman quality speeds' that we were probibly thinking of... but in the future... could be a little faster and a little smaller.
no big deal.

Something that hand-held can't generate enough torque to do that. Under that logic, there should be Power Hammers ala Fallout or Vibroblades that do 20D damage.

That's why you should have both:  The gun to keep him at a distance, and the knife in case someone gets in close.

*shrug* just stick with the gun. get some martial-arts skills for up-close and personal. takes just as much training to be good with a knife,... and it's easyer to smugle your hands into a secure area, over a broadsword.
